Decided to uninvite myself from this tabletop group 'cause I realized I would be really annoying, but there was a kid in it who made his character a tall, female, werewolf, and it was OBVIOUSLY a sex thing. And yes he is 'non-binary' and wears fingerless fishnet gloves in public.
That guy was almost not that guy, he would have been just somewhat annoying IF he did almost caused a tpk for the other players: it was a typical go kill evil cultists, turns out they was a large pool of evil/infected blood that turns people evil if they get exposed to it clearly visible on the map and the Barbarian walked right into it to kill 1 or 2 cultist minions and the character turned evil and goes to kill the rest of the party besides my character that end up wounded
I forgot to add the player was tomuch okay with killing the other characters (i mean it was obvious it was beyond rping) and the cultist leader fled so the mission was counted as fail by the DM
To elaborate on bagboy's incompetence at DMing, he put a magical mirror into a room which reflected all our attacks back at us and acted as a portal to the Shadow Realm.
It was a standing mirror. One Use Rope check later, Grimbold the Fucking Strong had her own tower shield which reflected every ranged attack that failed to hit her. At level 3.
This bit bagboy in the ass when he introduced people with modern firearms, intended as an unwinnable encounter (yeah he was the 'railroading' type) and they promptly all fell to Grimbold standing in a doorway while our gnome alchemist threw alchemist's fire over her head. He then dropped the campaign because apparently we all hated him.
Dude who went full tranny halfway through a long but well designed campaign.
He was always a little faggy so it was tolerated. It was when he trooned out and started hitting heavily on the DM's PC in front of his soon-to-be divorced wife and in front of the DM's wife we all unanimously agreed to cancel the campaign after a few more sessions.
Was a real shame because the dm put a ton of love into his campaign and was just too burned out dealing with troonery to continue.
I know he’s considered a lolcow these days, but Spoony use to have some great D&D stories about “that guy” on his Counter Monkey series back in the day.

Drama mostly. The divorce got real ugly and put a lot of delays on potential games. Troon started getting petty and timed things to keep the ex busy with legal shit.
We were a year into the campaign and the dm was so pissed off by the Troon's nonsense getting in the way of everything that he took a break. The break was more or less permanent for said group.

Sounds like a troon. I hope his ex is in a better place. I can't imagine dealing with melodramatic BS and legal shit at the same time. Idk what troonism does to men but it just makes them 1000 times more obnoxious and narcissistic.
But man, I'd try to get the band back together without the troon. Sucks one person managed to tank an entire gaming group.

It gives them an audience and a variety of justifications to indulge existing mental illnesses and maladaptive coping mechanisms rather than struggle with them as they'd been doing prior to their late life trooning out. It's basically just a way to hide and defend a backslide or lapse for the mentally ill.
It all worked out in the end. I found a better group a year or so later that has a dm who doesnt tolerate game ruining idiots. Been with them ever since.
There was a guy that was power game-ish due to his autistic tendencies. He didn't play a lot but he was known to be a power gamer. Some argued that it was not intentional. Others claimed that he was just another run of the mill autist and still others believed he was/is an elaborate troll.
For a while, he was infamous amongst 40k fans. His 40k lolcow (or possibly trolling) career died down after he got banned, trolled, and a-logged off most 40k Facebook groups. I wish I had the foresight to archive/screenshot everything because a lot of the best stuff has been deleted by now. Today he doesn't produce enough content for a dedicated thread unfortunately but he does merit mentioning here.
His name is George Weber and he is one of the most interesting 40k fans to post online. He's very right-leaning but despite all this, he is an avid defender of female space marines and loves to make homebrew rules. It's not a popular stance in the 40k community if one wants to make friends. Either be neutral or at least pick a side and stick to it. What he did ticked off both sides simultaneously.
He mentioned these images are from his "friend's" deviant art page.
More of his female marines from the Amazonian chapter.
He has a hate boner for 8th edition.
One of his favorite pastimes is writing homebrew rules for 8th edition models and his female marines. He had a few epic rants about 8th edition but they got deleted by mods, which is why this post is iconic.
Being autistic, he joined a page called Warhammer for Whiners that he believed was for whining about the current state of Warhammer. The best part is that the signs were everywhere on that page. Yet... he waltzed in anyways. (This is the group's banner btw).
The truth of the matter is that it is an autistic honeypot and the group spends most of its time milking lols from all the salty autists. Many of the posts were deleted but it went as well as you would expect. I'm hoping some of you out there may have archived it before it was lost to the abyss. It's a long shot but there was some comedic neckbeard gold. I just didn't spend much time on Facebook and never thought to take screencaps until it was too late.
Some theorized he was an elaborate deep cover troll.
Whether or not he is a troll, he's moved on from 40k.
He's developed a small dedicated fan base, but not for the reasons he thinks... Personally, the lulz are gone for me now that he left the 40k fanbase. Others still think he's great, so there may be more interesting content if one wants to take a deeper look.

>Female Space Marines mucking up the manliest homoerotic RPG
>Allowing women to share the holy genetics of our God-Emperor
Smh. Women ruin everything. Also how does he account for the gene seed not flat out killing women? They don't have the technology to make any new ones either...And it relies on testerone.
Husband had a that guy almost join his Old World of Darkness group. The guy wanted to play a Gangrel (vampires that can talk and turn into animals) This Gangrel had a necklace that was made out of werewolf teeth. The necklace had a special power. If his Gangrel died by decapitation all the werewolves of the Red Talon tribe (A tribe that hates humans and vampires) would come and avenge his death. He never gave a good reason why he had this little trinket. It was a generic he had saved a Red Talon from something and was gifted this necklace because he was such a honorable guy.
I'm a fan of shapeshifters, and getting to play as them is a rarity reserved for a small selection of games, D&D being one of them. I often play a changeling and naturally, never tell the party while being the secret trap card of the group. Bard is a favorite of mine because anything I cant charm, lie, cheat, persuade, flatter, bargain, intimidate, swindle, disguising, or otherwise convince someone of, I can pull out even more bullshit by shapeshifting AND employing the above. I'm the party's biggest breadwinner, their diplomancer, their buffer, their bullshitter, and just about every other niece a person like me could fill, but like most bards, I often make very very very stupid decisions, (Justified in character for my low wisdom, and the fact that I'm a fucking bard). Rather than sneak into a guarded outpost, I might shout out to the guards in plain view asking if they want some booze down at the tavern 2 roads past, I might roll to seduce the dragon rather than buff the party, I might be too drunk to fight; but it doesn't matter because I get so many ways to bullshit my way out of these things. This is not a story about how my drunken shenanigans triggered a "that guy" however, it's how my method of bullshitting got him kicked out.
2 or 3 years ago I played in a group at the local game store after dark. The game had been going on 2 days a week for 4 months, and our characters were fairly antiquated. There was a Human Lawful Good Paladin, who initially hated my shenanigans, but after being forced into few situations where the party was split and we saved each other's hides, we'd grown to tolerate and even joke with each other. There was an Ork Barbarian, who notoriously had bad rolls. And besides me, there was Gnome Mage, who generally powertripped to high hell but saved our asses one too many times to complain. This is "That Guy". Why you'll see in the final paragraph.
Being the only girl the table, I still played a male, as did everyone else. Finally my character's secret got out after I got knocked out cold after disguising as an enemy vampire consort and being knocked upside the head by one of the big bads who the party was confronting. The party actually almost killed me right after they killed the big bad, because it looks really bad if a vampire who you're fighting suddenly transforms into something you've never seen before. Thankfully I wasn't too dazed for too long and managed to choke out a somewhat decent explanation. The Paladin really didn't trust me after that, but elected to take me back and interrogate me to see if this was true, because I wasn't acting my boisterous self at all. That's when something odd started to happen over the next two sessions.
That Guy at every single conceivable moment from then onwards had purposely tried to kill my character. When convincing the paladin didn't work ("I see no reason why you're suddenly so eager to kill at every chance you can") he resorted to other factors. NPCs in on roads, poisons, curses, everything. After the 2nd session ended with me disproving just about every single convivial concern the paladin had, and multiple checks of "Detect Evil", they let me off the hook, which was when That Guy suddenly suddenly blastercasted me into the negatives. In a surprising roll, the Ork Barbarian bashed him over the head with his mace and rolled higher than we'd ever seen him before and killed his character with a crit. Immediately an argument broke out which ended the session and every excuse under the sun was thrown out, though none towards me specifically. After around 2 days of back and forward texting, the GM told me he found out the reason why he'd done it. To this day its the most mind bogglingly stupid thing I've ever heard.
He was upset I played a male shapeshifter when I could have been shapeshifting into a woman.

That is some overt special snowflake overpowered BS. Because a) there is no FUCKING WAY a werewolf would give a gift to a vampire let alone let him live and b) have any sort of willingness to avenge said vampire.
In the WoD stack of powers it goes Mages>Werewolves>Vampires>Hunters. Vampires are afraid of werewolves. And for good reason. Just one could fuck up a whole coterie if they wanted. But usually, werewolves have other shit to do and don't actively seek out vampire unless they're being assholes in their territory.
That Guy is basically a Gary Stu vampire in that case.

Yeah, it wasn't just one werewolf, it was all the Red Talons in the world would use moon bridges and umbra walking to get to the person that killed him. I really don't know why he thought it was a good idea.
I know he’s considered a lolcow these days, but Spoony use to have some great D&D stories about “that guy” on his Counter Monkey series back in the day.
I remember those vids. Even though spoony has completely gone off the rails (to be fair, he was always a little cowish, but now he's not even making content) and purely confined to insanely ranting on twitter nowadays, I still enjoy some of his stuff and listen to the Counter Monkey videos when I need myself some background noise. Some of the videos dealing with "that guy"s in particular are:
If his rambling is too much for you, he talks about this pompous vegan guy who would game with him and his friends. Spoony, who was DMing, had the players try to find a genie to remove their curse. Once they found the genie, who could only grant one wish btw, Vegan Steve immediately asked for a deck of many things. You basically draw a random card, and you get what's on it, whether it be good or bad. There's a finite amount of good and bad things, and Steve chose to draw an amount of cards that was the exact same number of good cards. Unless he got it perfect, he would've run into at least one bad thing. The last card he drew killed him, while all the other cards were good cards.
In this one, Spoony talks about Gary. Gary would arrive hours late to every D&D session, unless it was at his house. At one point, he said that he was late because he forgot to bring his pants.
This one has him discussing the topic of "that guy" in general.
I remember there was also a video where he talked about guys who tried to sneak rocket launchers and other stupid shit in Call Of Cthulu. I don't remember which one it is tho.
